Hotels Near Statue of Dr. João Maurício Abreudos Santos in Calheta

Je suis très partagé par cet établissement. D'un côté, l'emplacement est parfait. A la fois sur l'île car il permet d'accéder à toute l'île très rapidement par les voies rapides, alors que situé à bonne distance de Funchal. Isolé, l'endroit est parfaitement calme. La vue est époustouflante au bord d'un apique vertigineux. Le couchés de soleil sont justes splendides. Côté hostellerie, nous étions dans les appartements sous le bâtiment principal. C'est grand et bien équipé. Mal insonorisés, on entend tout ce qui se passe à côté... Mais c'est propre bien que défraichi, et le ménage quotidien est bien fait. Pas de Wifi en dehors de l'établissement principal. A notre époque c'est quand même dommage. Côté accueil, aucun effort particulier n'est fait. Que cela soit à l'accueil, dans le restaurant. Pas de sourires... êtes-vous content de faire ce boulot ? C'est à se demander. Quel dommage ! Côté restauration. Au secours. Il faut réserver avant 13h pour le diner au restaurant. Enfin, à la cantine plutôt. Vous serez en présence d'un buffet. Les plats sont approximatifs, sans imagination, sans soin ni techniques de base. Tout est insipide. Au petit déjeuner, les pains peuvent dater de la veille. Les croissants : mieux vaut ne pas en proposer lorsque c'est si mauvais, voir rassit. Le soir la terrasse qui offre un décor de rêve, serait certainement pleine, si un service souriant, et avec quelques boissons un peu imaginatives étaient proposées. Mais rien de tout ça... Bref pour y dormir entre deux journées de randonnées, c'est top. Pour le reste...

Nice hotel that lived up to expectations. Excellent location in Calheta, right on a golden sand beach, with direct access from the hotel. It is ideal to have a car as it is 30 minutes from Funchal. It's worth paying extra to have a room with a sea view The quality and quantity of the food complies with the all-inclusive package, as do the drinks. Daily and varied entertainment. Good spa with heated pool, Turkish bath, sauna and cold showers. Very pleasant outdoor pool area, with plenty of sun loungers and well designed. Free ping pong, paid billiards (€3/hour). Very good price/quality ratio.

A beautiful beachfront hotel that is perfect for romantic getaways and a cheaper alternative, yet still luxury, to standard 5 star hotels. Location wise the hotel isn’t great as it’s very remote from the strip/city centre and taxi prices are not particularly cheap in Madeira. The rooms are spacious and stunning, well worth it with a great selection for the breakfast buffet and plenty of restaurants/options for dinner. A lovely love band/musician plays every night which is also great. Overall a wonderful stay with much friendly staff, however if you are looking to do much sightseeing in Madeira, this hotel is not the best option unless a significant amount is left for travel.

the hotel area is very neat. The pool is clean. The staff at the reception are polite and friendly. The rooms are neat, small. We got a garden room, but it didn't feel like a garden. It was just a lawn and a view of a green fence. The bathroom is tidy, towels are changed upon request. The hotel is very quiet, beautiful views of the sea and mountains can be seen from the windows. There was no microwave or kettle in the room. The breakfast is delicious, a small but filling selection. VERY SMALL SELECTION OF FOOD IN THE HOTEL RESTAURANT. JUST PASTA AND SALAD. So those who want to have dinner will have to travel closer to the sea to cafes.

Hotel au milieu de la montagne, jolies vues, très bons repas, personnel très gentil Un peu vieux en terme de deco, nous avons eu froid dans la pièce commune et en dormant (manque de couverture), lit très inconfortable…

Excelent choice for our stay in Madeira. The hotel is located in a natural botanical garden - some will count this as a minus, but I disagree. On our arrival, at 2AM - Bolt cost was 25USD (31kms). Excelent service, very clean, lots of activities and friendly staff. Totally recommended.

Our experience of the hotel was enhanced by our meal in the restaurant, which I have reviewed separately. My favourite thing about the room was the enclosed balcony. It was like having a private yoga studio in the sky. (Fellow yogis note, the floor was slippery.) I also enjoyed the spectacular view from the Sauna, which at the time was free because it was not working optimally. (So do ask!) It was good enough for me, but it took over an hour to heat up. The Pool looked too small and shallow to actually swim in, but mostly it was unusable as it was colder than the sea. I don’t know if this was usual. Breakfast was fairly similar to ones we had at other Madeira hotels, but this place had the tastiest selection of fresh bread rolls and very good garlicky mushrooms. The room was clean. We liked the 3-section recycling bin in the room. Others mentioned lack of plugs for phones. Erm... we knew about that but were surprised to find that there were not enough plugs for the room items. The Kettle and TV had to share a wall outlet. They really should consider supplying an extension lead, which could be given out and collected at check-in, just as they (bizarrely) do with the TV remote control. We did start off on a rather bad note. At check in, we were downright ignored. One receptionist was settling a dispute with another guest, but both members of staff deliberately avoided any sort of eye contact with us. I don't normally notice this sort of thing, but it was rude and infuriating and lasted some time. A simple nod would have sufficed. I’ll put this down to a bad day for the first member of staff, who later was helpful. After a long wait for no discernible reason, the other receptionist demanded payment before we had even seen the room, for which we had paid in advance. We've stayed at many places who use multiple booking sites. Sometimes you pay on arrival, sometimes beforehand, and we understand that the hotel needs to know. However, there are ways of asking that don't come across as offensive and like one is trying to get away with something. Not everyone is out to steal the remote control. Make sure you bring proof of payment if you’ve paid in advance, as we had. The hotel is lucky that they have out of this world views.

We booked through Jet2 and I have to admit I hadn't done my homework very good. Our room was a Classic. On arrival found out that this is in the Reception Building. On the ground floor there is Reception, Bar and lounge areas. The bedrooms are located on the 1st floor - there are stairs and a lift. The other rooms with balcony's are located just across the road. On the ground floor and first floor - on the second floor is the pool and breakfast area. Our room was No. 136 which had 3 windows, which open - two windows overlooked the bar - just across the alley and the second window the road. The room is quite spacious - very clean and light from the windows, during the day. If you are a light sleeper, definitely a no. My husband wears hearing aids so once he took them out, he slept like a baby - but the noise goes on until the bars close after midnight. A good sized bed, very comfortable, pillows the same. There was only one chair - although when I asked we were provided with a dining chair. The wardrobe is opposite the door as you enter the room - you need the light on. The bathroom for two older, not so slim people was a bit tricky. The shower is to the left of the door, the sink directly in front and the toilet behind the door. So you have to open the door, lean back against the shower and the sink to squeeze round the door to get to the toilet. There is only one hook in the bathroom and not much shelf space in the room. Breakfast was good, plenty of choices and the staff are really pleasant and helpful. No problem with getting a sun bed in the pool area and the pool is very clean. We had a snack lunch on one occasion - a steak sandwich and it was excellent. The bar in the reception closed around 20.30. Daniel on reception was really helpful. The hotel is situated in a lovely spot, overlooking the harbour. Around the hotel are lots of bars and restaurants to choose from. We tried quite a few and they were all very good, quality and quantity of food. There is a local bus stop and the HOHO bus stops just up the hill from the hotel. Madeira is a beautiful island and is well worth a visit. The people are very welcoming.

We spent two weeks in the paradise of Madeira, surrounded by the care of Quinta do Furao team members. Excellent breakfasts and even more wonderful dinners pleasantly tickled our taste buds, and the wonderful Rita and her colleagues provided us with the perfect experience. Hotel Quinta do Furao is an exceptionally nice place to spend a holiday - it's quiet, peaceful and the hotel's surroundings and views are breathtaking (especially the mornings and beautiful sunrises). Almost everything on this wonderful island was wonderful, so we were able to spend a very special 20th wedding anniversary there. Almost, because as a result of various circumstances, this wonderful place on the planet was engulfed by forest fires high in the mountains. However, this made us experience even more care from the Quinta do Furao team. Every day we were informed of the situation with the fires, which trails on our beloved pearl of the Atlantic were safe and which still needed to be postponed. If I had to express my rating for Quinta do Furao in a numerical way it would be a 6 on a five-point scale :).
